Another flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv turns back midway

Another flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv has turned back midway and is returning to the UAE, according to data from the flight-tracking service Flightradar24.

According to the service, the aircraft is currently in the sky over Saudi Arabia.

On Wednesday, a FlyDubai plane flying from Dubai to Tel Aviv sent an emergency signal and, some time later, made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia. The airline later confirmed that an incident had occurred on board.

A source in Israeli security agencies told RIA Novosti that Israel is considering the possibility of an attempted terrorist attack on board.

Earlier, media outlets put forward theories that one of the pilots had tried to crash the plane, as it is known that the aircraft was sent into a steep dive. Photos of passengers from that flight covered in blood have been published online.
